@RexRed,
What makes statistics on inequality in the US so interesting is how the conservatives continues to believe taxation is a shift of wealth from the rich to the poor. Their battle cry is "no taxes!" All while the wealthy gets richer and the middle class falls into poverty.
Guess what? Many conservatives fall into the falling middle class, and they can't see the obvious that their pay and benefits have been stagnant for three decades, cost of everything goes up, and college tuition becomes impossible.
